I don't know how you do it but most *C:s I know would not submit a [broken]
segment, without first checking it for validity, without checking the
submission results and then make themselves unavailable for a couple of
weeks.

If a *C submits a broken segment, that's his fault and nobody else's. If I
should submit a broken segment (which I try not to) I would expect to have
it rejected so I could fix the problem and resubmit. Allowing programs to
automatically "fix" problems is very dangerous ground. "None
will thank you if it suceeds but many will flame you when it fails..."
;-)

Maintaining nodelist data is the primary job of *C:s and it's really not
that difficult (I'm a Fidonet NC and othernet RC so I know). If a *C can't
handle his job he should let someone else do it.
